CALIFORNIA DREAM- SANTA MONICA

During my time in Los Angeles, I got the opportunity to venture down to Santa Monica for a day. So, I spent a couple of hours walking around the pier and enjoying the beautiful coastline.

The beach goes on for miles and is absolutely beautiful! It is frequented by tourists, families and locals; all enjoying the breathtaking scenery and warming sunshine. From beautiful beaches to scenic hikes, and gourmet restaurants, this coastal neighborhood of L.A. has so much to offer to anyone who chooses to visit. The Pier is without a doubt one of the most iconic destinations in downtown Santa Monica, it has been a Los Angeles treasure since 1909.

If you go down to the Pier today, you’re in for a big surprise. The 100-year old Santa Monica Pier is the official end of Route 66 – and also where Forrest Gump ran to, before turning around to run back to the east coast.

If you’re in the area, this is a beach you don’t want to miss out on. 🙂
